Children Of Salik

Larisa Jašarević & Zejd Omerbegović

Life’s been tough for the Saliković siblings since their mother’s been hospitalised. Everyone’s acting up and anxious about the sleepwalking escapades of Adem - the youngest (who is not a zombie!). The kids and their dad seek respite in nature. But the weekend at their grandparents’ homestead on the edgelands of a Bosnian town, turns into an adventure. They must rescue their cat and honeybees, adopt a storm orphan, and help their grandpa search for the greatest treasure of all. What keeps them going are tales about the most radiant human in the Universe. Retelling the unforgettable stories that Salko Omerbegović originally wrote in Bosnian, the Children of Salik Series weaves together a love for nature and the prophetic stories that Muslim children, the world-over, grow up with.
